LTE SC-FDMA and LTE Uplink LTE (Long-Term Evolution) utilizes a specific modulation scheme for the uplink known as Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA). SC-FDMA is a modulation and access scheme that provides advantages for uplink transmission in LTE networks. Introduction to SC-FDMA and uplink frame structure Marriage of single carrier transmission and FDMA Uplink … Read more
WDMA Air interface or Uu Interface contains 3 layers which describe as follow, The WCDMA layer 1 supports all functions required for the transmission of bit streams on the physical medium. It is also in charge of measurements function consisting in indicating to higher layers, for example, WCDMA Frame Error Rate (FER), WCDMA Signal to … Read more
The TX diversity methods in the open-loop mode are as below Space time-block coding-based transmit-antenna diversity (STTD) Time-switched transmit diversity (TSTD). In UMTS STTD the data to be transmitted is divided between two UMTS transmission antennas at the base station site and transmitted simultaneously. The UMTS channel-coded data is processed in blocks of four bits. … Read more
Special Antenna Technologies MIMO and Beam Forming are critical features in determining the actual link budget required for the Operator’s network. However, these two features are also critical features from a capacity perspective as they can also improve the efficiency of frequency reuse and reduce the intra-frequency interference within the same cell as well as … Read more
